How do you factor 4x squared minus 21x plus 5?

Answer 1

(4x - 1)(x - 5)

Answer 2

To factor 4x^2 - 21x + 5, we look for two binomials in the form (Ax + B)(Cx + D) that multiply to give 4x^2 - 21x + 5. We can determine the values of A, B, C, and D by examining the factors of 4 and 5. The factored form is then (4x - 1)(x - 5).
